RE: Cloud without the internet
They've been doing this since the 1960s. It's called a mainframe. You're not exactly revolutionizing the industry here. This is just the typical computing cycle. Centralize everything to make management easier, then de-centralize everything to give 'power to the users'. I'm sure in five years we'll all be moving to 'the cloud' and then in fifteen years, we'll all be putting stuff back on the user's machines. Rinse and repeat.
